Yumi's prostate cancer treatment fund
Supporting Yumi through prostate cancer: medication, transport to Osaka Regional Medical Center, and living costs while She cannot work.
🇯🇵 Japan2,050 views
In July I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. My oncology team at Osaka Regional Medical Center has planned 8 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in November. I was told to expect about 8 weeks away from work.
I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 41, I worked as a bus conductor until July, and I have been the main earner for my household.
Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Osaka Regional Medical Center 5 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly.
My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries.
I'll post every invoice and receipt as an update so donors can follow where each gift goes.
Where the $3,650 goes:
• Transport to Osaka Regional Medical Center: $410
• Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $640
• Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $2,600
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
